2007 607 pages [reprint of 1948 imprimatur edition] simulated leather/red rubrics/ribbon This book is a liturgical book, i.e. it was made for the clergy to administer the sacraments and perform other ceremonies included in this 1st volume of 3 of the Roman Ritual [Rituale Romanum]. We began reprinting this volume in May of 2005 in response to the demand for a traditional Catholic ritual. Fr. Weller s ritual, we believe, answers that call. This 1st volume of Latin/English ritual, originally printed by the Bruce Publishing Company in 1950, includes more than the original 1 volume all Latin rituals. First of all, Fr Weller has included an introduction on the Holy Sacraments. One could say this is short summary of sacramental theology so as to justify the ritual in the first place. Moreover, before each section on the sacraments, Fr. Weller provides a short commentary and description of the ceremonies to be preformed. The table of contents include: General Rule for Administration of the Sacraments; Baptism; Blessing of Baptismal Font; Confirmation; Holy Eucharist; Penance; Last Anointing; Seven Penitential Psalms & Litany of the Saints; Ministration to the Sick & Dying; Matrimony; Processions; Appendix: Reception of Converts, Allocutions to Bridal Couple, Mixed Marriages, Betrothal, Silver or Golden Wedding; Index Generalis Alphabeticus; English Index. This volume has an attractive sewn imitation leather red binding, similar to the original 1950 edition, with gold stampings on the cover and spine. The actual text for the ceremonies is printed in black ink with red ink rubrics. The musical antiphons, when used, are written in the traditional Gregorian chant style, i.e. square notes on a 4 line staff. Moreover, the Psalms are from the traditional St. Jerome Vulgate Latin Psalter. Lastly, we inserted a ribbon marker for easy reference. The clergy should find this first part of the ritual very informative and useful to administer those sacraments and perform those ceremonies contained within this book for the sanctification of the faithful.
